Permit Required: Chester residents must display a “Town of Chester Access To Public Services” permit on the windshield of their vehicle to gain access to these facilities. These stickers, which may be obtained at the Town Clerk’s office with proof of residence and vehicle license plate number, must be placed on the passenger side of the front windshield.
